Intro: Bb--Dm x4

Speak:
Bb
  No one ever said 
that life was fair 
And I'm not saying 
that it should be 
Dm
  So knowing that you are what 
you want to be and I'm not 
Comes as no surprise 
    Bb
But dont expect me to
be happy for you 
And dont smile 
at me and tell
me things will
             Dm
work out for me too 
I dont want your pity


Growl:
(hold)
  I hate your pity

Bb
  Taste your vanity and 
its sweet bitterness as

you hide behind your veil of 
my stolen hopes and lost dreams 
You took them all I

mess that you 
left in your wake

my hopeless cries

your meaningless eyes
